Sublinear algorithms for testing monotone and unimodal distributions
The complexity of testing properties of monotone and unimodal distributions, when given access only to samples of the distribution, is investigated. Two kinds of sublineartime alg...

Probabilistic Assumption-Based Reasoning
In this paper the classical propositional assumption-based model is extended to incorporate probabilities for the assumptions. Then the whole model is placed into the framework of...

A nearly optimal oracle for avoiding failed vertices and edges
We present an improved oracle for the distance sensitivity problem. The goal is to preprocess a directed graph G = (V, E) with non-negative edge weights to answer queries of the f...
